No worries. Not that I have my finger on the pulse of the jewelry designers, but coordinating and not quite matching seems to be cropping up in a lot of work. Congratulations on the bid!

Thanks Phill. :)

Christine, it's my pleasure, and let us know how it goes. You could also use a murrini chip in place of dichro - it looks pretty neat when you pull the bottom down.

Pretty sure the Bluebird only goes up to 1200. Probably not hot enough for fusing, but I haven't tried it.

Some olive jars are tall and narrow (but be careful with glass jars and shaking), or the plastic jars that hold sunflower seeds, if you can find one with straight(ish) sides.

WD40 works for me to remove adhesive - similar to Goo Gone. But since I'm lazy, I usually write on the rod with a Sharpie. Silver for darker rods and black for lighter. It burns off.
